Jim Canales has a leadership journey that ranges from teaching high school English in San Francisco to managing over $1.8 billion in assets for one of Boston’s most influential philanthropic organizations. As President and Trustee of the Barr Foundation, Jim leads a team of changemakers who work to make our city a better place for all. How do they do it? By supporting arts & creativity and education, and by fostering ideas that aim to solve persistent issues like inequality and climate change, to name just a few of their focus areas.
When Mayor Walsh announced the City’s Resilient Boston Harbor plan at his Boston Chamber address last October, Barr stepped up to the challenge of preparing Boston for rising tides.

Words of Wisdom Dinners are a complement to our Lunches on Leadership. In this series, a very senior leader joins a small group of roughly 35 people for a conversation about incredible milestones we’ve observed in their career. We pick their brain on highs and lows, and leave plenty of time for questions.
